he entered engineering and did a quick system check. Before walking to the master systems display. "We are in good order. Let's bring the warpcore online." he said as loud as he could get his voice. The flu was effecting that now as well. The staff got to work non the less. Once everyone was ready he opened the valves as it were and a few moments later they had the core online and balanced. He'd smile before nodding to a Ensign to take over and he entered his office again

"Not even a day. What did you break?!" he shouted across engineering
the ensign looked lost
he walk over to the warp core noticing the polarizing field. "Back away. this won't be nice." he warned as he approached the core with a hyperspanner. he aligned it in such a way that the tool would fall breaking the polarizing energy and feed it to the deck plates and ground it. with a simple flick the tool melted and the polarizing energy dissappeared. he'd walk over to the master console and brought emergency power online along with the fusion reactors. this bought main power back to the ship. but left the warpcore offline which they'd need to restart now.

he'd tap his combadge

Cadet Edward Smith 09-Oct-19 01:41 PM
he rubbed his temple and called his entire staff onto duty and put them to work on an investigation into the polarization of the core, he'd open the crystal chamber after and check their status which luckily it shut down before any damage occured. he'd sigh again and began the start up again, and he started the core once more which it ran as it should once more. and he'd stay and monitor it.

Sixteen hours of work he had the core running as though it didn't have a few thousand light years on it. But rather it had just powered up for the first time, EPS conduits were also given some attention allowing them to take a heavier load than they were able to take originally. Overall computer efficiency had improved by twenty percent. And response time for the autopilot had been improved to a hair shorter than instant after routes were calculated. He had a team check up on the science lab that was damaged recently for bulkhead strain and conduit damage that was certainly missed by his junior crewmembers. Which was saw to in reasonably short order. He had also spent time adding extra redundancies to their standardized damage control systems, increasing their response time and effectiveness.

he had finished making everything beyond perfect and took his PADD out and replied to the complaint in a manner of actions will be taken. Which was a simple matter of separating them onto different shifts for a while then after a bit get them to work together a little bit at a time. To form a team bond which he felt was vital to his staff, because at the end of the day that could affect the safety of the ship. After of which he wrote up his general reports along with his second officer reports. There was a few words double typed due to his caffinated state however (edited)

[D] The warp core was situated at the back of the deck, illuminating engineering in a beautiful blue glow.

Walking downwards, descending from the ceiling and downwards in a quick stride.

“I did,” came her plain reply, for she was now entirely occupied with peering down the length of the deck, squinting as if it would better aid her in identifying the source of the movement.

They seemed to be moving at a quick march. The figure soon reached the bottom, demagnetised their boots, and pushed themselves from the casing. Still suspended by the safety harness and wires, they jumped over the barrier which separated the outside of the warp core to the rest of engineering. Upon landing neatly they unclasped themselves from the safeties, set down their phase-welding device, and strode over. They were either vulcan or romulan, judging by the ears, and was wearing the golden-yellow colour of operations - the same as Walsh.

Routine maintenance of all technological aspects of this vessel are conducted on a regular basis - this includes upon holographic software." She swiftly moved to look at Walsh. "Might I enquire, sir, whether the temporary loss of a visual representation of your programme was caused by the holoemitters or by your own programme?

"It has been a current thing, ever since I was made. The simple answer is, in order to become human, I have to have emotions, so for example, when I get scared I jump.

“Officer,” Blanche had propped herself against the nearest thing resembling railing, and only chimed in once certain that the situation was under control. Or more so than it had been initially, at least. “If you have everythin’ under reins here, I hope you won’t mind me returnin’ to my quarters.

"Of course, sir; do feel free to leave should you feel so inclined. The crew, at present, is taking shore leave. As such, you are also entitled to the same downtime." V'Lyr held up the tricorder, musing over the basic information as it came through and then looking to the PADD as it fed a more detailed report through. "My scans indicate no errors or fluctuations within your own programming and subroutines, sir. Also, all holoemitters and relays are operating within normal parameters at present. Do you own a portable variant of the holoemitter, sir, for usage other than aboard Starfleet vessels or stations?"

Jayne just stood there trying to locate the disc. Nothing was found, but information was leading towards the captain
"Well good news bad news. Bad news is, is that I do not know the exact location of the disc. Good news, there is information leading me to believe that it is with the captain, or in the captains knowledge. Like I said, the only people who know where it would be exactly, are the people who own it, or the people who made it."

"Awh, thank you very much sir, aren't you a polite one! Enjoy the rest of your day!" With that, the elderly Romulan wandered off again and out of engineering. Inside the crate there was a tribble... Rainbow in colour and sparkling like it was covered in glitter. There was a note about its vaccinations and saying it had been neutered so it could it have kids. It even had crumbs all over it from all the cake the posties had fed it... Apparently it had been delivered from a secret benefactor from SFA.

"Having emotions is a real struggle for me John. I am not human, I don't act like a human, talk like a human or walk like a human. But I have emotions. Ever since I got those damn emotions it's been nothing but hell between you and I. It seemed like you were annoyed with me, so caught up with whatever you were doing and.... She started pacing with her hands on her head, tearing up. since you got your damn promotion, you started to get even more angry and stern with me. Look I know it's your job, but what really hurt me the most, was She relays what he said at the reception for the inauguration “Jayne get home out of here and for the love of god shut up”. That is why I did what I did. I thought, maybe if I didn't know you at all or what you did to me, I could stop thinking about you when I work and stop knowing that every day, I will live with the fact that I am the runt of the pack of this God damn vessel that I was put on. That is why, Ferentz, that is why I did what I did. Now look where I am, back.... Back here! Where it happened... Is that what you wanted John." At that moment, her tears started to soak her uniform and her pacing got faster. (edited)

He raised his eyebrows “Jayne do you remember why I said that? Do you remember what I said when I installed those lines of code? I’m fine with it if you want the code gone. I can’t do that but appeartly Cecil can and that’s fine by me. I’m mad because you thought that the best way to deal with it was forgetting me. Thats why I’m mad. Not because you removed codes but because you jumped to an extreme with out trying to talk it out.”

"How. Every time I do talk to you, it's been like I'm talking to a Lion. My points didn't matter to you. Before I had my damn emotions removed, you were angry at me. I jumped to the extreme, because I thought you hated me, telling me to shut up and getting angry when I asked a simple question like "Am I annoying". By now, I don't need that question answered." she wiped the tears from her eyes, but they didn't stop flowing. (edited)

"I am not getting into an argument, I am afraid John, afraid of what will happen to me. But you need to understand, I have so much to learn about human communications, and maybe you should've known that what I did was not to annoy you. I did it, because you were one of my only friends. A person who wouldn't hit on me every time they could. Or pick on me for being emotionless. But you turned, and If it was because of me trying to be friends, then so be it Lieutenant!." She went on her knees in ager and sadness. She just wanted to be happy, something she hadn't felt in ages. True happiness. I'm sorry for asking for emotions. I'm sorry for being persistent. I'm sorry for making stupid decisions. Im sorry for being annoying. I'm sorry for barging in. I'm sorry for being Me!."
"The boys in the school acted like you. They became friends, but soon found out who I actually was and then had a different outlook in who I was. It tore me up inside, but I couldn't understand that until you came a long. That is a gift that I will hold deep in my holographic heart."

He looked at her unsure of what to do. On one hand he had caused her this pain. On the other she had done something which to him was close to unforgivable. She did seem sincere but even still he hand to hold her to the same standards as everyone else. But even still in his mind the question bubbled of if she liked him like that and didn’t know how to express it. He doubted it but even still. He walked over to her and dropped to his knee and put a hand on her shoulder “Shhh you’ll be ok. Just let it out”

It was taking a bit longer of time to overhaul the alarm klaxons than she'd really anticipated. It seemed these damn things were being used so much on the ship they'd started needed to be recalibrated. Using her own suped-up trident scanner, she tapped endlessly on the display screen with her near talon-esque nails. The clicking is no doubt-resounding throughout engineering, but she has yet to say a word to anyone, looking, if anything, in a foul mood. (edited)

From the CEO's office, the doors would open and the Chief would pass through. He hadn't been seen going in since his previous shift, but anyone that was aware of his photonic nature probably wouldn't be all that surprised by the strange work hours. Quietly passing through, he offered a nod to any engineering staff that caught his gaze. Moving from the hall, Higgs would leave the deck without a word.

[D] Once Higgs was relieved of his duty on the bridge, he had made his way back to engineering to begin resuming his tasks. Truthfully, there was very little demand for him at the moment. Now that they were in friendly territory, the ESD engineers had come aboard and began the typical check up process. A starship, massive as it might be, was still a vehicle of the union and it was to be kept in tiptop shape. A duty that the lead engineer didn't have to interfere in, but only having just gotten full use of his faculties back felt like waking up from a nap. Despite the ordeal on the island, the hologram was feeling energized. And so it was here, in the lower engineering decks that he would join in on the maintenance, finding a moment here and there to add some thoughts into his department head log. After all, he still owed a report on what happened on the isle. Not that the Captain had been knocking down his door for a report, but Higgs wasn't one to allow himself to fall behind. Besides, he still had to talk to Lieutenant Nix. The talk with the Security Officer had also not escaped his memory cache. So much to do, so little time.

[Three of Twelve]Meanwhile, at the other end of engineering, a newcomer had entered - a tall, grey-scaled Saurian in yellow Engineering uniform. People stared at him, at the residual implants at the base of his neck and surrounding his right bulbous black eye. This Saurian was an ex-Borg. He scanned the area - Engineering was relatively quiet. Odd. He would then cross to one of the nearby consoles, and, instead of using it like any normal person would, laid one clawed hand on it, extended assimilation tubules and ran a diagnostic that way. Unorthodox, but it worked.
Avatar
Breaker 04-Mar-20 07:03 PM
It wouldn't be long before the Saurian based borg was approached by what looked like a human. An older fellow with his age displayed by the peppering of white and grey in his hair and beard. The man would come to stand next to the borg, his hands placed behind his back while his optics fell to the assimilation tubes that had punched through the face of his console in order to begin their function. "I'm aware that you are new aboard this ship, but I would appreciate it if you made minimal use of those assimilation tubes." Higgs was aware they were taking on new crew members, and given that no on was running around in an absolute panic as well as the lack of Borg Cube knocking on their door, Higgs could also guess that this guy was on of those new members. "I am Lieutenant Cormac Higgs. Chief Engineer. How may I be of assistance?"
Avatar
Lt. JG. Ramat'iklan 04-Mar-20 07:07 PM
The former drone flexed his fingers, withdrawing his tubules back into the harnesslike attachments on his clawed hands. "My orders were to report to Engineering for evaluation with regards tò my fitness for duty. I was informed that such assessments are to be twofold; first to sickbay to ascertain the proper working of my biological self, and thereafter here to assess what cybernetics remain in my person." He stated flatly, turning to face Higgs robotically and snapping to a pose of rigid attention.

Finally, some one that knew how to properly communicate around here. The sense of talking to another logic based life form set the hologram at a bit of ease- how knew how to perform well with androids and holograms. Stepping forward, Higgs would withdraw the tricorder that had become a standard part of his equipment and unfurled the device. The soft regular beeping of the tiny machine would go to work as Higgs spoke to the Borg. "You are correct. Starfleet regulations suggest that all staff be cleared by medical before being placed on duty. This extends even to life outside that of biological. Though there is still plenty of biology to you." An observation Higgs made as his scanner went to work on picking up all the various devices that the Saurian had been endowed with. Although the scan would sufficiently tell him what he needed, Higgs thought that information offered by the drone might speed the process. "State your designation and primary function before and after assimilation."

"Three of Twelve. Primary Adjunct to Unimatrix 0045, Delta Quadrant, grid Beta-0046. If I may, sir, I prefer to be addressed simply as Three. I have learned that my colleagues have a certain distaste for using my full designation." He stated, head swivelling around, tracking the hologram's movements precisely, like a robot. "My former function in the Collective was tactical assault, and long-term repairs where necessary." He continued to study Higgs - every so often the man's form seemed to flicker. "You are a hologram." He observed.

Breaker 04-Mar-20 07:34 PM
Higgs had the habit of running on subroutine. Every movement he made was precise as well. Almost like he was programmed. "You would be correct, Lieutenant Three. I am indeed a hologram. Your observation skills are to be expected from a former collective member. " It was at this moment that the memory reached into the Starfleet file with withdraw the update, bringing the Saurian's profile to his view wile the tricoder did its thing. "I'm a little surprised they assigned you to engineering from tactical. I've found that most tactical officers prefer the use of their equipment, not so much the maintenance." The thought was perhaps a little on the philosophical side for the Borg, perhaps. Higgs would return to brass tax and numbers. "Either way, welcome to Engineering. With some recent crew member reassignment, I was preparing to find myself a little short staffed."

Avatar
Breaker 04-Mar-20 07:45 PM
Those three implants became the primary focus of his scans, each other being dealt with on a more narrow band of scan in order to get an idea of their functionality. The claim to misunderstanding gave the hologram effort to loft a brow, though the Borg continued on his explanation to reveal he was a holoprogrammer. "Well, I see there is a bit of irony in that, though even more understandable then that you were able to so readily identify my nature. I presume I don't need to tell you that operations on photonic members of the crew goes against personnel guide lines and will be seen as though you were performing irregular procedures on biological crewmates. I only mention it because there is still a member of our own team I have to talk to about tampering with a holoprogram without permission. Something I thought was obviously in the realm of violation."

I am also pleased to know that you are prepared to show much more restraint in your adjustments than he did. As for the why, I do not believe the intentions to be malicious- just the opposite, in fact. However, it's unacceptable to have tampering of photonic personnel. Even in what may be considered a jest."

Lt. JG. Ramat'iklan 04-Mar-20 07:54 PM
"Jest. This member of the crew tampered with the programming of a member of a crew in jest." The former drone's expression twisted in disgust. "Most concerning. I was unaware that Starfleet personnel are capable of such juvenile actions. I was of the belief that we were above such, until you furnished this information to me." (edited)
Avatar
Breaker 04-Mar-20 08:03 PM
The professional nature of the drone was refreshing. And he was right. it was concerning. It was juvenile. "You have the right of it, Lieutenant. Although this person has stained their own name, I must admit there are others who have shown a great deal of forethought when it comes to the nature of photonic life. Doctor Carlisle being one such person. The same person I had to see for my own physical evaluation, brief though it was." Despite the degree to which Higgs agreed with the drone, his tone never changed. Unwavering in the professional visage might have made it somewhat disarming to hold an impassioned position. Thankfully for the two of them, passion was in short supply. So when Higgs turned back to the previously penetrated console and began inputting his scanner data, it would be with no amount of disrespect as the hologram put his back to the Borg. "Your incredulous realization is one I shared as well, Lieutenant. However, it is important to recall that the actions of the few need not reflect on the opinion of the greater body. At least, that is something I've found to be personally true thus far." (edited)
Avatar
Lt. JG. Ramat'iklan 04-Mar-20 08:06 PM
"Is that so?" He stared coldly on at the hologram, with clawed hands clasped together. "To the contrary, I have found that this ship has a social platform utilized by the crew for idle chatter. A most inefficient use of time and computer memory space. From perusing the contents I have determined that the members of this crew have an apparent obsession with interpersonal relations, and become excessively rude when questioned regarding. Juvenile topics and behavior. As I have stated and made clear to them, I am conflicted as to whether I ought to be amused or thoroughly displeased with this fact." (edited)
Avatar
Breaker 04-Mar-20 08:17 PM
For the first time since he boarded the Phoenix, Higgs let out a small chuckle at the observation by the drone. "Another astute observation. Yes, the personal chat is something of an anomaly. I'm not certain what the original intent behind it was, but it has since transformed into a place to "openly" discuss matters of intimacy, physiology, placation, and other nonsensical behavior. I've reasoned that the ability of instant communication brings comfort to biological life forms; the communications platform allows them to talk without their identity being readily presented. It presents the illusion of a wider audience with which to communicate outside of their usual social circle. And while out on a mission, those social circles highly constrictive. Something I've taken to calling bio-logic." The hologram paused for a brief moment as he presented his joke. Or at least what he called a joke. His optics peaked over the side of his shoulder back at the drone for a moment before he continued. An information dump on his observations was something he believed a Borg might appreciate, perhaps. He had managed to spend quite some time observing the behavior of people thus far, and had a plethora of references when it came to personal experience. "You will usually be met with hostile reactions when you question the actions of another biological. They usually believe it to mean a lack of confidence in their reasoning, and while they are not always wrong in that assumption, it is a habit of biological life to face difficulty in restructuring their logic when presented with conflicting ideals. Their lack of writable memory and protocols means they suffer an error an become quite existential, and so they revert to anger instead."
Avatar
Lt. JG. Ramat'iklan 04-Mar-20 08:22 PM
The former drone huffed. "Once again, sir, juvenile, basal behavior. With your permission I would like to seek out the creator of the platform and order them to purge it from the computer's memory banks with immediate effect. There are more efficient uses of our personnel's time. Exercise, duties, et al. As long as it exists it gives the crew opportunity to act like adolescents - something I find most distasteful. I am of the opinion that Starfleet is a collective of adults, responsible, mature individuals." (edited)
Avatar
Breaker 04-Mar-20 08:36 PM
"Something we agree on, I assure you." The hologram had continued punching in the information from the tricoder into the computer. Once he finished, the hologram would turn around to give the drone his attention once more. "I am not certain we have the authorization to demand such a thing, as I'm not certain who the creator of it is. I do agree, however, that it becomes an effective waste of time and a tool of distraction for our crew members who are less than focused. However, removal of the chat system is above both of our station. Instead, I recommend you write a report to the Captain, perhaps suggesting a limited time of interaction set only to those that are off duty. A synchenous schedule with the Ships systems could assure that those logged into duty don't have access to the chat until their duties are complete." The hologram mused in though of the situation for a moment. Ideally, they would be able to wipe the chat from the ship. But it was ingrained with the sort of codes that he was not authorized to overcome, and to do so would most likely be some sort of offense as codes were usually in place for a reason. "I'm afraid I'll have to deny your request for now. We will have to become more creative in our methods of motivating the crew to remain focused. Perhaps an active reminder in the chat when we see something disruptive or unbecoming."

Lt. JG. Ramat'iklan 04-Mar-20 08:39 PM
The former drone remained silent on the topic - if his commander could not get rid of it, then ostensibly neither could he. He would simply have to not use the system. "Yes, sir. Are my implants within proper functioning parameters? I would like to begin my duties as soon as I am able."
Avatar
Breaker 04-Mar-20 08:43 PM
Higgs would nod at that. A simple response. An acknowledgment of command. Strange how something to simple can be so telling in how one intends to perform their duties. "Yes, Lieutenant. My scans show that your implants at functioning at acceptable parameters. Welcome to Engineering." Higgs was about to dismiss the Borg back to his duties when another thought struck him. "Also, your assimilation tubes. They are acceptable here in engineering, but if you are called for remote assistance, please try and make minimal use of them. They can cause some unease in biological forms."
Avatar
Lt. JG. Ramat'iklan 04-Mar-20 08:47 PM
"Yes, sir. Your instruction is duly noted." He responded - another simple reply. He then turned back to his console, extended his assimilation tubules and went on working to maintain the warp core like nothing had happened. (edited)

Breaker 04-Mar-20 08:48 PM
With the scans complete and no need for further instruction, the Borg had gone back to work. Ruthlessly efficient. Higgs would have to keep note of the new crew members performance. Withdrawing his PADD, the chief would silently excuse himself to his office to begin mapping out a message or three.

"Well, that was all I needed, sir. Thank you." Oskar turned about and walked away. He had this...distrust for Borg. He based his belief in faith. All computers at some point must fail. He had faith in that. He had faith that Borg would fail at some point in some way. Just like a computer. He believed they could be hacked. They were just as susceptible to it as anything else. He left and headed to the hallway.
When he made it to the door, he paused. Should he say something about his belief or keep it to himself? Could he hurt the feelings of a Borg? Did Borg have feelings? He was Liberated, sure. But...doesn't that mean that he's just as dangerous separates from the collective. He uses his assimilation tubules, for Gods sakes.

Oskar turned back to the Borg officer. His training of open-mindedness and his belief in that all Borg were flawed and would fail collided in his brain. "Lieutenant, may I speak frankly?" He asked him, walking over. This needed to come off his chest. The best way was to say it directly to the Lieutenant.

"I don't trust you, sir." Oskar said. He spoke with certainty. "I mean this with all due respect. I don't trust your kind. I respect your rank and uniform. I respect your accomplishments to achieve this rank and join Starfleet. But I don't trust you or your kind. Now, I will follow your orders like I would any other officers and follow you into battle.

"Indeed I have. The mission involving ensign Schneider and lieutenant Wryden to the Tiersen. Engineering is currently designing and fabricating the earpieces requested by the Captain. Based on given context I presume that you wish me to create a program for purposes of preparation. Am I incorrect in saying so?"
Avatar
SeniorChef 28-Mar-20 12:08 PM
"That is correct. I've taken part in the Advanced tactical training course, back at the academy and we were using holodeck programs quite often to simulate missions. One of my assistant department heads told me, that the Ensign and the Lieutenant could get into great danger, when their disguse is discovered. Therefore you are preparing this earpiece right? To extract them if necessary", he asked. An effective way, but prone to errors. "As a variant for my Department and the Tacticals, I was thinking of a holo Programm to train the extraction if your device should fail under whatever circumstances. They could be taken away, destroyed or such things. To save our officers, we would maybe send another team to guide them off the ship safely. Doing this unprepared and unaware of any possible incidents, could lead to an ever bigger failure."

If this is the right way to do so, is a thing to be decided by the captain or the Department heads. I didn't ask them yet, because i didnt't want to show up without any valid suggest. I came here to ask for the possibilities of such a programm. So will you help me Lieutenant or not", he asked, without any note of agressivness.

"If you can't handle at least waiting much less following orders then you should leave. I have no need for Engineers that won't follow orders and I don't think Starfleet has a need for them either. The point is not the fact that you protected the ship, it's the fact that you didn't talk to your superior officer. Taking things into your own hands is not the Starfleet way, I understand that you are young but that doesn't excuse it. You follow orders no matter how inconvenient they may be.

Swift hands unzipped the kit bag and rifled through everything to find the cervical collars, quickly sizing one.

Realising Amy still hadn't taken the head and might not even be trained to command this, he shuffled around to the top. "What I want you guys to do is stretch your arms over and grasp his leg or arm, you guys on that side will d-do the same on the opposite side. Cross over your hands with the person n-next to you for stability. Careful at the ankles, okay? I'm going to s-stay on airway management. We're going to do a log roll, 45°, then you there Ms Engineer Ma'am are going to slide the board in. We'll then set the patient down again. We're going to use the command 'ready, s-steady, roll', moving him on 'roll.' Is anybody NOT ready?"

That wasn't what he asked and someone was going to get yelled at for not teaching them how to respond to the question, but he nodded nonetheless. "Ready, steady, roll," he stated, watching to ensure the engineer's head was moved exactly at the same time and kept in line with the rest of his spine. The woman slid the board in and with a second command they had the man set down again. "P-Perfect, th-thank you guys! Nurse Olson if you can h-help strap him up and we can b-beam back to medical..."

S'Rora sputtered as she nearly got hit in the face with an Exploding console, her clothes already stained. Somewhere she had gotten a Uniform top from a Crewmember, and her face was scratched with shrapnel marks. "Beam the Injured to the Medical team," she ordered the remaining troops.

I think you idea might be doable, I'm not making any promises they are 2 advanced technologies that you are trying to combine, though it's not impossible. I will need to contact my boss to request time in the engineering lab, you will need to provide the phaser and tricorder. I would contact Starfleet HQ R & D to see if they are already working on this technology.

Congratulations right back at you, Lieutenant. And yes, I’ve thought through all the problems that might occur when combing the two technologies. The trick will be getting all systems to work simultaneously and not interlope each other I’m assuming at least. We’ll probably fail a few times and have a half phaser explode in our faces but nothing is impossible. I’ll also ask permission for use of the tricorder and phaser and contact the correct headquarters. I’ll message this same number once I’m done with it. Thanks.

Talphil had remained down in engineering, mostly just sorting out all of the equipment she had used and logging everything into one of the consoles. Towards the end of her shift she was suddenly hit with the 'what am I supposed to do after this' feeling. She didn't know anyone here, didn't know the ship layout, would probably end up going back to her quarters and just skulking... But then again, she was still meant to go for a physical, and she had a pocket full of caterpillars that she needed to give to someone who would know what to do with them. This ship had a chatroom, right? She had heard about it before. Maybe she could ask about it all there..? (edited)

"Intriguing..." She commented, the projects did sound interesting even if these humans were overtly tactile in nature. Perhaps it wouldn't be all so bad here.

Well sort of fire fight I guess... they used psionic weapons and we shot at them. We all got to meet the president face to face. I had seen him at the awards ceremony but, never got to speak to him. I did today little old me speaking to the most powerful in the entire Federation it was humbling. Then I on the second away mission. We also had her, but she jumped. I feel like the galaxy is safer without her. Though I feel like she should have stood trial for her crimes. What was your away mission like?" Malcolm said as he continued making repairs to Jayne.

"If I have to be truthful. It was dreadful, there was just so much death. Our group put up a fight with the help of reinforcements but we took the main bulk of it all. The emotions, the dispair, the fighting. Yet sadly the only thing I last remember seeing was something I could not picture in my mind, ever again.

Malcolm had worked a full shift from dawn until dusk it felt like though there was no dawn or dusk on a starship. You only knew the time. He had done another diagnostic test of the warp core and made some progress on the tri-phaser. Though he had some trouble with the cooling system from the heat regulation. If the were to attempt to produce a model now, it would melt as soon as you fired. This was not a problem he was going to be able to solve on his own in one day. Seeing that it was the end of his shift anyway he decided to return to his quarters and think about this issue some more tomorrow. He sent reports to both Lieutenant Nix and Lieutenant Allen, to report the results of the test to Nix and to inform Allen of his progress with the device's design.

Dear Lieutenant Parsons, I'm glad you brought this to my attention, morale is vitally important and we should do our very best to see that the Engineering staff are satisfied and somewhat happy in general. I'm happy with what you suggested and I'm giving you the go ahead, if you see any disturbing results be sure to forward them to me as well as the counsellors in Medical. I'm glad to see you taking initiative, keep it up.

To be honest all you need to know is that fear that your feeling is the most powerful tool you have so long as you face it head on. I believe in you Nikola, I have seen you in action.

"Live long and... nuqneH."

No, part klingon. And the ears? She held up a ta'al. Hm. This was not going well. And now the other lieutenant was watching. She looked between the two, now having both of their attention apparently. "We are here to inquire about the egg-like device shown in the Tal Shiar transmissions, as the Phoenix appears to have past history on it. Neither of us were aboard at the time.

[D]Only tricorder scans existed of the device when the away team captured it. The device itself was found in an underground ruin beneath New Romulus, in an abundantly flourishing cavern filled with forms of life until then undocumented. The egg itself was made of some kind of neutronium alloy and contained multiple cells with which to hold a type of unknown energy. The terraforming incident was caused by an explosion of what all present could only describe as 'life energy', when the device was forcibly triggered by Tal Shiar operative Valdain Essoth. (edited)

"You paraphrased something I said. Something about diverse knowledge." She clarified, though her attention was on the data. "Neutronium is theorized to be impenetrable. Even its pattern of decay is slow. Stable." She commented, stepping closer to the screen as if that would help. "Even reshaping it is an undertaking, and that's without considering the energy component. Must every component be mythical by practical standards?" It was fascinating, if one ignored the way in which the device was being used. "Are there gaps? Seams? Weak points?" She did not anticipate an encouraging answer.

Never mind that. Her attention was back on the half-Vulcan. "Do you have any ideas? Not to intrude on Engineering's operations."
Avatar
Lieutenant Malcolm Parsons 20-Aug-20 05:53 AM
"Well, research into neutronium isn't of course. It would bring about a starship structural design revolution in the federation. All uses of Neutronium by the Federation involve alloying it to a weaker metal that is more ductile and easier to form shapes. We aren't even able to artificially create it. I don't think our best bet would be to try and damage it, perhaps we could contain the device somehow? Though as to the power source of the device I'm not even sure how they are able too without a star or I guess according to the reports a Q. Honestly Lieutenant T'Svai I don't think you were intruding on our operations at all, this weapon is far more dangerous if we don't figure out how to stop it. It could easily destroy any target they want. It's our job to protect the Romulans and there would be every reason to believe that Tal Shiar's next target could be a Federation planet." (edited)

"It is still useful to be certain of such things, though yes, collaboration is quite logical." She was at this point tapping at another console even though this wasn't her department because that was the logical thing to do. "The Genesis Device from the 2280s simply overlaid a pre-programmed matrix onto existing terrain. Perhaps the device's programming can be disrupted? A virus can potentially be introduced into the enemy ship's computer system, rendering the weapon inert for the time it takes to recover and transport the... power source." It was still difficult to speak tactfully about the sentient being that had been torn apart to provide power.

Malcolm looked at the console he was thinking about the different members of the crew with experience with complex computer hacking. Then he remembered the ship's last battle. Lieutenant Kong deployed a program that completely destroyed ships, Intel could probably help with what they were looking for. "I feel we should speak with Lieutenant Kong, Ensign Autumn, and Ensign King. They are apart of the intelligence department. They made a computer virus that rendered ships totally neutralized in the War with the Klingons a few months back. If anyone could figure out how to program a virus to neutralize this device it is most likely them." (edited)

Though Q's do seem to be incredibly powerful, perhaps she will be able to snap her fingers and teleport on her way without the use of transporters, honestly it helps to be ready for anything."

"To summarize, the plan is to introduce a virus into the Tal Shiar ship's computer, disabling the control mechanism for the doomsday machine, as others seem to call it, and subsequently beam the power source out by locking onto its energy signature and space-warping properties. It is merely a rudimentary idea." She explained, lowering her hand and clasping her hands behind her back.

T'Svai nodded approvingly. Aaron seemed competent, and anyone with past experience with this Valdain would be a boon. Part of her would have preferred a Vulcan, and there were other aspects of Aaron's appearance that made her suspicious, but since there were no logical criteria backing such preferences she took care to push such thoughts to the side.

She gave a small, clipped nod before realizing oh, the Captain had indeed gotten back to her. Excellent. She read through the message and moved the files from her PADD onto a console, since it still made no logical sense to go all the way back to Operations just to use the same resources. "The Captain has approved our idea and given us additional data." She also started on a reply to the Captain.

Vulcans could go without food for several days. Evidence: her kahs-wan and quite a bit of supporting science. However, given the present circumstances and her decidedly odd sleep schedule, she had the impression now was not the time to test that theory. "I will be heading to the mess hall for the time being. Join if you'd like. Otherwise, we will reconvene on deck five by turbolift one in an hour to meet with Intelligence." She said to both Aaron and S'Tera. She moved the data back onto her PADD and started towards the hall.

I've been feeling pretty stressed out by all of our current events, and just needed a place to get away. I was feeling a bit adventurous tonight, and thought... Why not our ship's pool? I had a really good time with you guys at the ESD, and was sad when we had to leave. I had been really looking forward to a lunch! I hope this can make up for it. It's no party or anything, but I'll replicate some snacks just for fun! Feel free to invite anyone else!

Oh. Interesting. The people on this ship made friends easily. Excellent. Growing up near Vulcan's forge meant she'd had to go all the way to the beaches of T'Paal City to learn to swim, and beyond that had learned to do so purely for utilitarian purposes, but she had no strong objections. On a whim... "Lieutenant S'Tera, I and two colleagues will be going to the ship's pool during this break, as I just learned. Would you like to join?" She asked, pausing by the door.

Amanda walked in smartly and surveyed the damage. She almost physically recoiled at the sight of all the damage and death around her. It must have been some battle, she mused to herself. It was a good thing she was beamed aboard when she was and didn't wait in dry dock. She started rolling up the sleeves of her uniform, calling out to whoever was around.

Malcolm spun around and stood at attention. She outranked him and deserved his respect. "That would be me ma'am. Lieutenant Junior Grade Malcolm Parsons, acting CEO. All decks are on emergency power and we are missing one of our Nacelle's. Most primary and secondary systems are down. All we have is life support, shields, weapons, and impulse power. I'm currently attempting to restore power to the other primary systems." He looked exhausted but, he was happy that all his engineering officers were alive and well. (edited)

Seems like we've got a lot of work to do. Since you'll be my right hand, I'll be using you right away. Get me a list of all the able bodied engineers we have, all shifts. Let's make primary systems a priority. We can't do warp on one nacelle so let's get as much power as we can do the other and try not to fry the impulse engines while boosting.

Amanda consulted the list quickly. "All right. I need all the second shift to report and team leaders to see me. We'll get them all working on primary repairs. We need to keep the warp field, such as it is, stabilized. We can't go to warp, but we don't need a breech either. Next is getting impulse at as peak efficiency as we can. We can limp back to dock but let's do it quickly. While we travel we can work on reinforcing the shields and deflectors." Amanda sighed as she looked around, her borg implants now apparent as she turned. It would be a lot of work, but she wasn't scared of work.

Amanda frowned as her console flickered, her hand smacking it and smirking when it lit up again. "Uh just this one actually. I was the ACEO of on two ships during my career one before I got... Taken. The other recently before my promotion here and after my reintegration after being liberated. I didn't really expect to be put to work so quickly but I enjoy it." After successfully getting the power flow to stabilized, she would grab a hyoersoanner and start repair on one of the other consoles." Seems like you've been doing a great job. Not easy to be thrown in the fire so to speak. "

Lieutenant Malcolm Parsons 24-Aug-20 01:45 AM
"It's not my first time being thrown into the fire ma'am. One time the last CEO left for a conference and the ACEO quit so I stepped up and was acting CEO which is what got me promoted to the ACEO position. You'll find everyone in this department is very trustworthy and incredibly hardworking. I hope you get to see them at their best because it really is an honor to work with such a talented group of engineers." Malcolm finished repairing the coupler and moved on.

She grabbed a leaking battery carefully between two fingers and threw it into a nearby chemical waste receptacle before replacing it. "How long until we reach ESD?"

When everthing seemed well enough in hand she had found her temporary quarters and made sure her things and Tony her rabbit had made it safely. Amanda walked into engineering and stretched her tall frame. The emergency cots were not suited for her 6'5" height and she had slept funny. Thankfully she didn't need too much sleep and she was ready to begin another day. She sipped at her coffee as she regarded Malcolm and someone she hadn't met yet.

We last saw one another just before I left Earth to rendezvous with the Phoenix, and I have not called since, nor did I intend to until at least three months into my service here, as usual, but it appears my entire family is determined to cause an inconvenience."

T'Svai watched Amanda pick at her sleeve for a moment before looking back up at her face. "Let me clarify - do we need to procure and install a regeneration alcove or appropriate substitute for you? Procurement is largely my division's responsibility and that would be useful to know before we reach spacedock."

She fiddled with the sleeve of her uniform a bit before responding. "Not long at all, that's good honestly. I haven't met too many other liberated Borgs since I was freed, we all seem to go our separate ways pretty quickly."

"No I didn't actually. I only just arrived yesterday and was on another ship for a year before this so my knowledge of the Phoenix is a bit lacking.

L'Kuvak began his shift, doing some minor repairs, and in general making sure the ship was ready to go, and checking on his inhibitors to make sure they wouldn't malfunction so they'd have future use.
After some time, there wasn't anything that really needed to be done, so the workaholic he is, exited the hub and decided to go to the pool since he hadn't been there yet.

After talking to Higgins, Flynn spent some time looking around engineering. He liked knowing the layout of where he worked, so decided it would be best to familiarise himself before it became too busy. He spent the best part of an hour taking in the section, before realising the time and figuring he should get to his quarters to get some rest.

Looking at his nails before looking up at her, "I was interested by my siblings. My dad would always tell us that if we wanted something, we would have to build it ourselves... it led to many years of me fixing our game systems, farm equipment, etc. I just sort of grew to love building and repairing things by hands."

"Yeah. Pretty much the same for me, except for a different reason," she responded. "I've been interested in turn of the millennium Earth technology since I first heard of them in grade school. Whenever I had time I'd read all about them. Once I actually got to experience such technology first hand. Since that time I've used a replicator to make parts to build old systems myself."

She looked at him for a moment, her face in an expression as if to say "wait holup". Humans were the group she most identified with, despite not even being human; after all, she'd been raised on Earth. After a moment of deliberation, however, she decided not to make a big deal of whether or not humans were stupid. "Yeah, I guess they can be sometimes. Any species can be stupid if they're smart enough. There was a saying I learned somewhere... 'Superior ability breeds superior ambition.'"

After a while of constant laughter, she gripped her side and gasped a few times, trying to get air. She hadn’t laughed that hard in a long time, and it was at her commanding officer, no less. Something was wrong with that... After a few more moments of laughter, she settled down to a sensible giggle, gasping for air between fits of giggling. “I’m... sorry, Commander,” she began, “I... must admit, I was imagining you in that... ninja pose-“ she began giggling again as she spoke, “-On some... hostile ship with the... goofiest face ever! It was... quite an odd image!” She began laughing again, the same wheezing and barking laugh she showed earlier, even if it was a bit more exhausted than previously.

“Find my husband, please” She didn’t want to, she didn’t want to turn a corner and find his body, but she had to, she started the round about of the engine room, the wave of emotion came and wouldn’t stop coming, this is where they went after the mess hall on their first date, she had since forgot the specifications of the warp core. Since meeting Malcolm the engineer she let herself forget. But now she wanted to memorize every number, if it meant that Malcolm was safe.

Seeing Ramat moving that suddenly, there wasn't a thousand reasons to do so. He himself approached quickly, nervously. The guy had already gotten his tricorder out and the results could tell what he needed to know. Somehow, he knew them before seeing them. A leak- He didn't want to. He took his own tricorder, doing similarly. There'd gotta be- something- Amy was right here- it couldn't-

She pulled out her tricorder, even though Newt had already pulled out his, she needed to see the results for herself.

For a second the Jem'hadar's eyes slid shut. He didn't know the man. He didn't exactly feel his death. Or understand why his colleagues felt so deeply when their loved ones passed. What mattered, however, was that they did. Find my husband. He could only imagine what this man's wife must be feeling at this moment. Nonetheless he had a job to do. The tricorder was snapped shut, and he stood, looking down at Amy. He shook his head, giving her two simple words: "I'm sorry..."

Newt put the tricorder back where it belonged. He looked at Malcolm for a couple of seconds more before getting back standing and turning slowly but surely towards Amy. Once he was face to face with her, he- well, he didn't know what to say. I'm sorry? I wish that something? There was this urge to hug the woman but she was technically still her superior and both on the job. The Jem'hadar was quicker though, so he just tried to keep his tears in for now. He couldn't when Amy was there, it was her husband that was right here.

“Leave us please.”She ordered the medics quietly. He couldn’t possibly be gone.. it wasn’t long before she was down on one knee, something was telling her to pull the glove of her EV suit off, and she did that, radiation, warp plasma be dammed. Using her shaky hand she placed it over his heart to find a pulse herself. She wanted it to be different, she didn’t want it to end this way. Not like this. (edited)

Oh my god. Diana's eyes widened as she noticed that Malcolm wasn't breathing. He couldn't be dead, he had to be alive, had to be alive for his wife, for his crew. The Cadet was visibly shaking, eyes wide, tears threatening to spill. At Amy's order, Diana turned around, walking off to another part of Engineering to leave Amy and her husband alone. Once she was away from Amy and Malcolm, she struggled to fight back tears. She couldn't cry, she had to stay strong for Amy, for the others.

Suddenly, his tears threatening to fall just... disappeared. It was with a certain numbness that Newt nodded and left the room back to the hallway. There was things to do in the mean time that would let the lieutenant grieve for now, and work was always easier than to deal with feelings.

After everyone had left, the ungloved hand went for Malcolm’s hand, the tears were already rolling down her cheeks behind this stupid ev suit helmet, “Please.. no..no. Don’t leave me. I’m sorry I wasn’t here fast enough... oh god don’t go. Please, I’m begging you.”She was shaking her head in disbelief, married in one day, passed the next, just like a certain woman predicted, she should’ve listened, should’ve take it seriously. He knew the risks of the uniform just like everyone else, but that was a lousy excuse for a funeral speech. One day she was planning a wedding the next it would be a funeral.

[D] Time had seemed to freeze around Amy and Malcolm as she cradled his limp form. It felt as if the world was weighing down upon them; every breath she took was oppressive, limbs leaden, and it felt as if the weight of despair might break her. Light kicked to life around the two. Glimmers of starlight seemed to rise from the ground upwards, specs of silver and gold and purple slowly making its way upwards. A sense of calm took over. It might have been eerie had it not felt so welcoming. It was like, despite everything, Amy may well have found peace. Had he been ready to go? No. It had heard people say no before. You gave them time and they turned around. This one, though… This one was different. This one had been too young, this one… What was it that it – she – had said before? They didn’t even have a day? It understood why this one was not ready. It would not make him leave. It would bring him the light instead. Glimmers of stardust and starlight alike seemed to seep into Malcolm’s skin. Hands were bathed in a shimmering glow, the light passed through his body and back through his skin once more- And in the background, the tricorder’s tone sounded.

Her head peaked up and looked around, the chiming of a tricorder? What was it reading, she was quick to flip open her own tricorder and run a scan just be certain. Her own crying had stopped, as she stared at his body changing and all these other colors sparking. In her 7 years of work she had never ever seen anything close to this. What was happening?

[D] The tricorder was alive with activity - as was Malcolm's body. Vitals seemed to be stabilising as light washed through his form. Burns were undone, organs were healed, and slowly the tricorder got to a stage where it had nothing to report other than Malcolm's peaceful sleep and the sound of steady breaths.

Was she not pleased with this result? Why would the universe snatch his life, then return it, some kind of torture? Because if so, this was the best kind of torture. She wasn’t gonna say anything, wasn’t gonna laugh. She grabbed onto his hand again. She could feel the warmth again.

In terms of strength, she'd probably be actually stronger than him, but it didn't mean he couldn't do it. He nodded to her last statement, though he wouldn't have ever done nothing but being gentle. Then though, the Lieutenant did it on his own and maybe it was better in a way, Malcolm was probably heavier than Phenna and he had had difficulty to get her to her bed, so- either way, he was kinda grateful. Now on the lift, Newt raised the things on the sides so the patient wouldn't fall while moving -not that the medical officers would let him but still precautions- and they were ready.

After finishing with the plasma lines, Cassidy began working on the coils and coil compressors. Since these coils were brand new, they weren’t too dirty all things considered. The compressors, however, those had some hot spots and some pretty bad blueing, but it shouldn’t be too badly damaged. She reported her findings on her pad and climbed back down, then suddenly got really light headed and dizzy, stumbled, and fell on her side. “Ah, fuck!” Cass blurted, reaching up and holding her helmet as if that would ease the dizziness in her head. She was sweating like crazy too, for obvious reasons. She was done for now, at least, and hadn’t collapsed while up on the coils. (edited)

Looking at her exhausted crew, she smiled at them. "I just want you all to know how proud I am of each and every one of you.

He walked into the hub, took a quiet deep breath, and exhaled, because this was the very seat of Federation Innovation, or at least one small portion of it, and the memories of Nedras 1 declared that this was where the Federation's wars were truly won. He stayed by the door, hands clasped behind his back, and waited.

“Ensign Nedras?” Cassidy called from behind himself own posture straight and polite, now gripping her data pad with both hands across her belly. She had an uncanny resemblance to Lieutenant Yar with this posture, if only she was blonde and had shorter hair... (edited)
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 02:35 AM
He turned around and nodded in greeting, posture still quite stiff. "It's a pleasure to meet you." He said, carefully keeping his attention on her face instead of the data pad. "So, what are we working with?" He asked, smiling.
Avatar
Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 02:49 AM
Cassidy handed over the data pad, which had schematics for miniature torpedoes, standard, photon as well as graviton torpedoes, each measuring 4cm by 8.3cm. The expected blast yield was significantly less on all counts compared to their larger counterparts, but the gravaton warheads could still deal significant damage to an unshielded target if applied correctly.
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 02:54 AM
He tilted his head to the side looked over it carefully, thoughts focused and uncomplicated. "I assume the goal is to exploit hard-to-reach targets? Seams, fractures, weapons arrays with small openings?" He guessed. "Say, can the graviton emission frequency be adjusted?" He was reminded of the meeting earlier that day.
Avatar
Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 03:00 AM
“That’s the idea, yeah. Thread it through an EPS manifold or perhaps an impulse drive,” she agreed, then made her way towards him and peeked at the data pad over his shoulder. “You can adjust the emission frequency with this toggle here on the warhead, turning it clockwise will increase emissions and counterclockwise will decrease emissions.”
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 03:07 AM
Now his smile was genuine, and wide. "The data appears sound." He noted, figuring it might be nice to get to the point for once. That seemed to be the way of things. "Why photon torpedos? Why not quantum or polaron? Just curious."
Avatar
Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 03:18 AM
Cassidy chuckled awkwardly at his question. “I’m not too familiar with modern torpedo systems, so please forgive me. I also don’t have he clearance to access quantum or polaron torpedo schematics, so... yeah. I can propose them to my project head when we meet again.”
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 03:24 AM
He hummed in confusion. "Strange. I had assumed-" No, that was rumor, wasn't it? He shook his head slightly and handed the data pad back. "Photon is fine, really, I'm just not used to it." He admitted. "If you aren't used to modern weapons systems, what are you used to? Antique technology? Cross-species technology adaptation?"

Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 03:34 AM
“If it helps any, my first posting was a Venture class cruiser, which was a Galaxy class before that.” She replied with an amused smile on her face. “So far all I’ve worked on has been antiquated tech.”

"Ah, that explains it." He remembered those designs, albeit vaguely. "I'm not used to modern day Federation technology either, not past an academic level, but I'm getting there." He said conversationally. "Though I'm certain my analysis is correct anyway. Numbers don't lie."

Noticing his interest in the hub, and hoping not to address his seemingly immensely young age, Cassidy looked around the hub with him. “Have you ever been down to engineering? If you’d like I can give you a tour.”
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 05:32 AM
"Not on this ship, certainly. I'd be delighted to take a tour." He agreed, exuberance now doubled. "I'd offer a tour of the tactical hub, but it seems a great deal less exciting."
Avatar
Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 06:15 AM
“Eh, guns and engines have always fascinated me,” she replied nonchalantly, followed by a quick giggle. She then reached up and placed a hand gently on the center of his back, leading him to the consoles on the starboard side of the hub. “When we’re at warp, this is where we monitor the field and it’s stability. Since we’re not at warp, this screen is off right now. Next to it is the same thing for the impulse drive. Again, since we’re not moving, this screen isn’t displaying anything. Are you following me so far?” (edited)
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 12:31 PM
He wasn't used to being touched, but recognizing the gesture for what it was he let himself be guided over to the consoles anyway. "I follow." Even though the screens were off, he could figure out what controls were what if he squinted. "So warp core deuterium/antideuterium intermix is monitored elsewhere. Interesting." He noted, crossing his arms thoughtfully.
Avatar
Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 09:01 PM
“Yes, that’s on the aft bulkhead by the core. It can be changed there as well, but only the ACEO and CEO can alter the intermix due to the safety risks,” Cassidy explained.
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 09:10 PM
Privately, he thought that there was probably an easy way to circumvent that, and then had to remind himself that that wasn't what he was here for. "Ah, I see. That makes sense." He said absently. "So. I must ask. What kind of improbable projects are people working on these days? I mean, unrelated to the Iconians."

Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 09:26 PM
“I’m not really in the know on that. Last I checked, Lieutenant Miller and Ensign Howard were working on some sort of robot vacuum cleaner of some kind, and I know I built a 21st century motorcycle purely for recreation, but other than that I have no idea.” (edited)

Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 09:32 PM
He gasped and clasped his hands together. "How delightful!" He paused. "The projects, that is. Not being out of the loop. You deserve to be in the loop." He smiled apologetically. "Shall we continue the tour?"
Avatar
Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 09:40 PM
Cassidy just giggled in amusement. This Vorta can be quite cute when he wants to be! “Yeah, of course we can!” She sat down at one of the console tables and logged in quickly, then accessed the core temperature and output, which were both slightly lower than usual due to being in space dock. “This is where we would monitor core temp and how much power it makes, which is usually around 180 petawatts. It’s not making as much power right now because we’re in space dock and hooked up to the station itself.”
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 09:44 PM
"Hm. Interesting. My old ship, if memory serves, used to operate at closer to 100-" He paused, carefully keeping his expression thoughtful and generally interested instead of, say, like that of one who was internally cursing themselves for saying anything. "But that makes sense, I suppose. This ship has more systems to sustain. Recreation areas too. Novel equipment."
Avatar
Ensign Cassidy Greenfield 29-Dec-20 10:54 PM
Cassidy looked up with an eyebrow raised, a bit confused. “What was your last ship, Nedras? Forgive me, but you seem to be a bit too fresh outta the Academy, but if I’m wrong please correct me.”
Avatar
Ensign Nedras 29-Dec-20 10:58 PM
He smiled and shrugged. "You aren't wrong, and I'm sure the guesswork is easy from there." He chuckled, outwardly unbothered. "Oh - I think I've got it. Replicators! Those probably have a high power demand too. Well, thank you for the tour. It was very nice to meet you. Please do let me know how getting your torpedo plans approved goes." He said cheerfully, before quickly making his way out of the engineering hub. (edited)

Cassidy had lost track of how long she was down here, and frankly she didn’t care. She had a lot to do and people depended on her research and design expertise. She found some peace walking along the engineering floor, with the gentle hum of the warp core and the vibrations thereof shaking the soles of her new uniform boots. She had forgotten just how much she enjoyed just being in the presence of one of these things, how much it calmed her. Even though it was long after her shift, Cassidy still hung out here to clear her head for even a few moments...

The first step he took was forever be engraved in his mind, it was the start of something bad or good, but it was definitely the start of a defining moment in his career as a starfleet officer. The first step came with the first assessment. He wasn't sure where he should start working on as a someone in charge, back in the Oracle and Phinda his station was clear, he didn't need to choose where he should start. Here, there was a lot of options for him to supervise. It wasn't until he picked Ota's station as his first stop. He made his way to the Bajoran's station, he had his hands crossed behind him and he had his right hand to hold his PADD. The lieutenant placed himself next to the ensign, looking at what she was working on before muttering. "What's the status on your station ensign?" His voice was casual, he wasn't in a rush nor was he harsh. His eyes fixed to the officer before him expecting a reply.

He was hoping for a reply like what he heard and because of that there wasn't really something else he should ask about the ensign's station. "Very well, ensign." He muttered, then there was a moment of silence from him before he asked another question, but this time it wasn't about the station she was manning. "What's your name Ensign?" He asked, before shooting up another, "And how long have you been on this ship?" (edited)

"No longer than a day," he replied with his usual tone and manner. Although, despite the lack of formality, which he enjoyed, he still had that sense of officer posture in him. His head was high and his arms crossed behind him just like before. "I'm Edward Pellew, the new ACEO of this ship. Now, how would you like to give me a tour of this engineering department, show me the way around and maybe give me a name of officers whom you think have distinguished themselves?" *He kindly asked her."

He had a grin on his face when as soon as he mentioned who he was the reaction the ensign was to sprung up like a spring. "Then what are we waiting for, lead the way Ensign!" The grin turned into a friendly smile, his hand briefly gestured for her to lead the way before going back to where it was before. "Oh, I almost forgot" Petty Officer," *He turned around slightly, gesture a petty officer that was monitoring not too far room them, "Relieve the ensign." The petty officer muttered a simple 'yes sir' before taking a seat at the station. "Now that's in order, you're my lead." He looked at the ensign with a slight smile.

He quietly followed the ensign on her tour, he waited for her to give him insights on what happened and how the system works in the department. He wasn't there to just tour the place, he was also there to evaluate the officers who worked in the department, and in this case he was evaluating Ensign Ota, based on how far her understanding goes in the department as a whole.

She continued the tour, pointing out and describing various things along the way and their functions; the various stations, the pool table, etc. Granted, she didn't know their function all that well, but she did her best explaining. She then lead the ACEO to the lower warp core. (edited)

The new lieutenant appeared when the door slid open with its distinct hydraulic sound. He wasn't paying attention to where he was going as he was paying more attention looking at his PADD, solving equation he had in his mind about some plausible unwanted event involving the impulse propulsion system and its fuel. It wasn't until a couple of steps in when he looked up and realized there was the chief of engineering present in the hub. He wanted to finish his equation but he didn't want to not acknowledge his direct superior, so he went to the station next to where she was and sat on the chair. "Commander." He gestured the tall commander with a nod of acknowledgement, before turning on the station he was at. When it was online, he uploaded his equation from his PADD to the station and started working on it on the station with its interface.

[D] That again, he was left in charge of the engineering department. Since the commander left, the consoles weren't having a dance, to his pleasure. Of course from the time his boss left for the bridge, his shift ended, but since he asked for an extension of his shift, he stayed for awhile longer. It was an action he glad to have done when the ship echoed the boatswain's whistle, announcing the names for an away team. It was just an old habit of his, to stay stationed when they were near an unknown planet. It was also the perfect time for him to indulge himself once again with the people of the engineering department, getting to know them and such. If he was being honest, he wouldn't have the guts to hitch up as many conversations as possible, but he was no ensign nor was he a junior grade lieutenant, his job made conversations with the crew a must.

The change of interface caught him by surprise, a quick look around gave him the assumption that the whole entirety of screens within the room he was in, had changed to this... rabbit? Keeping his composure, he head straight for a console and started powering it on. Once it got powered on, he rebooted the mainframe for all of the screen in Engineering, since restarting every single one of them would be a costly action, time-wise. He waited for what happened next as the system restarted itself. (edited)

MT 13-Mar-21 08:04 PM
The computer screens were once again returned to normal, as quick as his thought process could be, he enlisted the help of three petty officers, one maybe even a warrant. He specifically instructed them to do a full level four then three diagnostic on all system subroutines, just in case the reboot or the rabbit made an interference. When the men left to each of their consoles, he was left alone again. The lieutenant turned and looked at Matthew, who could probably listen to what he said to those noncommissioned officers. "That goes for you too, Ensign. Run a full level four then level three diagnostic on all subroutines. Report to me if you found something out of the ordinary." He instructed the officer who had remained silent. Right after he shifted his attention back to the console he was on, now with full display of the systems, he did what he instructed the men to do. The level four diagnostic only took a minute but the lever three took more since everything had to be verified by the person running the diagnostic. He looked for a faulty system subroutine and he waited for the men to report to him about what they might found.
Avatar
MT 13-Mar-21 08:20 PM
- While he was waiting for the results of the diagnostics back, a noncommissioned officer walked up to him in a fast pace. Pellew quickly recognised the officer was from the warp core compartment, so finding him standing before him after the whole screen was worrisome. The noncommissioned officer explained to him the situation in the warp core compartment, and how it was filled with holograms of the same rabbit. The lieutenant instructed him to try to get rid of it, the lesser officer understood what the lieutenant meant and left for the warp core compartment.
Avatar
MT 13-Mar-21 09:03 PM
- He began having reports of holoimages popping up everywhere, first was a report coming from the labs and second came from the hallway. He could do two things with holographic projections, he could divert manpower to shut them down one by one or he could use the ship's energy detection system in the whole deck to isolate photon and use concentrated electrons, he chose the latter. Wrapping up his diagnostics on the station, he proceeded to open the deck's system, then he opened the control panel for the system that could detect energy particles such as photons. He wrote a program to specifically target high concentration of photon energy with the specific distribution found in holographic images. In the code he also wrote a code when if said concentration was found, the system would reverse and instead of detecting it emitted high concentration of electrons to neutralised the photons found, practically eliminating the holoprojections. Applying the code in, all he had to do was wait, let the program do the work for him.

The lack of reports I've got from there worries me."

As we're talking now, I received a report that there are still presence of holoimages on the deck despite the proton scan, meaning, logically, the holoimages are not made out of protons." (edited)

The punch seemed to connect - clearly this had been made with the same technology the holodeck used in order to make things appear real. Somehow, however, punching directly into the heavy metal chassis of the monster did not hurt. Instead it was like a slight stinging. What appeared to be the construct's head slowly looked down, looking at the figure below... And then it swept a heavy hand sidewards, seemingly trying to bat the officer away. From behind it, the second construct fired upon the rest of the team behind Higgins.

The first construct which was further forward took both of the hits, the sound of impacting phaser-bolts reverberating off of metal.

If they had to do repairs later on them, that was fine, but for now they could be used as robotic shields.

Nedras gave Nishi a sort of I-know-what-I'm-doing look that was somewhat tempered by both the profuse bleeding and the fact that his eyes kept darting around the room to track the other intruders. He reluctantly handed the regenerator over.

“Thank you.” She took it with a rough (but caring, at least in her mind) hand and began to run it over his side, healing him as best she could under the circumstances.

Nemo continued trying to pry away the debris with more gusto, now that their intruders were instead floaters.

He groaned as he got up from where he had been ungracefully deposited by the blast, his back and spine sore, "Is it unsafe for them or us? Cause if them.... I could care less." He looked to Amanda for an answer.

Nedras clutched his phaser rifle again like his very life depended on it and stared vacantly into space as Nishi worked, listening carefully for any unusual noises.

He looked to the door before he gave a wince at the bruise he would surely have tomorrow, "Is the way clear for myself and Ensign Cassidy?"

He lingered for a half second before he reached over to squeeze her hand, the most PDA he would show while on shift, "I'll see you... and the rest of the crew.... soon." A nod to Gh'HaTz as he looked to him, "That would be appreciated."

Nemo was out of here. She needed to find Jayne. She dove back into the service tube and was out of there.

Amanda looked at the readouts as the ship shuddered. They were almost destroyed, practically dead in the water. She looked at the core and gave the softest of smiles. Not how or when she had wanted to go out, but at least she tried her best. At least mattie was on the chimera.

Nishi was still here- she approached Amanda, phaser slung across her shoulder. “Let’s go down fighting, yes? Keep the core going as long as evacuation takes.”

Amanda looked at Nishi, her eyes grim. "I suppose it would be futile of me to resist. Down fighting it is."

Ensign Lena Farkas 28-Mar-21 04:27 AM
Lena had been maybe a bit too thorough in his stress recovery training during his year off. He felt only twinges of fear, even when he knew deep down he and all of his comrades were one shot from being reduced to space debris. He was keeping a level head, and asked Amanda "Does the Phoenix have Phaser power?"

"You guys need assistance?" He asked looking up at the odd state of the warp core, and regretting his choice on destination.
"Time to go. Into the tubes." Edward pointed, he would get these people to the pods at least.

Lena began moving to the Jefferies Tubes. He still had his Personal PADD on him, so at least not all of his belongings would go down with the ship.

Once he was the last one in there he backed into the jefferies tube. Headshotting the defiler in the process before sealing the door and crawling after them.
